Cities across Europe to close streets to cars

Over 340 European cities, including Paris, Milan, Oslo, and Barcelona, plan to expand car-free zones to improve air quality and public health. These zones restrict cars, making streets safer and quieter. People can walk, bike, and enjoy outdoor cafes without traffic.

Many cities will create even more car-free zones down the road to support greener, healthier urban living.
